Sherwin Williams

Oleander

SW 6603

Oleander (SW 6603) is a soft warm pink with red undertones, carrying an LRV of 66. At this high reflectance, it reads as a light blush that stays clearly pink without washing out. The red undertone prevents it from appearing overly cool or lavender.

It works well in bedrooms, nurseries, and bathrooms where a gentle warm tone is desired. Pair it with Extra White (SW 7006) or Pure White (SW 7005) for trim. It coordinates naturally with Rosé (SW 6290), Quaint Peche (SW 6330), Agreeable Gray (SW 7029), and Demure (SW 6295).
